MNHQ and GNHQ here: Find the 5000 - help us find the thousands of women being underpaid £10,000 on their pensions

Hello everyone! Pension inequality is not a new topic on Gransnet and many of you also know that thousands of women have been underpaid tens of thousands of pounds due to DWP errors.

Many of these groups of women are being actively chased up by the department - but some are not and it's up to them to come forward. But most of these women don't know that. One of these is a group of about 5,000 who are getting about £1 a week. So it was suggested to us by on this thread that we mobilise Mumsnetters and Gransnetters to help reach some of them and let them know.

Challenge accepted. We’ve launched the call for everyone to try and find these 5000 women who are receiving a pittance on twitter, facebook, and instagram - and over on Mumsnet.

We just published a guest post on Mumsnet by former pensions minister Steve Webb about all the different groups of women who are being underpaid their pensions - who they are and what they can do, including these 5,000 women.

If you fancy it, get your brew on and here’s what you can do:

- Read the guest post and work out if you or someone you know fits these criteria
- Get in touch with them and let them know they may be eligible - send them the calculator here
- Maybe help them work it out if they are not connected to the internet.
- Spread the word to friends and families about not only these 5,000 but the other two groups of women who are missing out but will not receive anything unless they make a demand.

Let us know if you'll be taking part - and how you can get on - on this thread!
